Abstract
The native extracellular matrix (ECM) laid down on silicon and titanium surfaces by osteoblast‐like SAOS‐2 cells was exposed by selective removal of cells. This type of material surface ECM‐Si, ECM‐Ti was shown to promote the nucleation of calcium phosphate from a simulated body fluid (SBF). Microscopic and spectroscopic results revealed the effect was associated with a collagen fiber‐free extracellular matrix. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res 71A: 16–24, 2004

Prolidase (EC 3.4.13.9) is a ubiquitously distributed imidodipeptidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of C-terminal proline or hydroxyproline containing dipeptides. The enzyme plays an important role in the recycling of proline for collagen synthesis and cell growth. An increase in enzyme activity is
